Lyrics
Description
Moon hung low over black river glass Cold wind cut through the tall marsh grass Boots sank deep in that muddy shore Like the river I knew what I came here for
Trail kettle lights faded behind the trees Night got still enough to hear me breathe And every mistake I ever made Felt alive in those rollin’ waves
I heard somewhere waters can wash a man clean But I’ve seen rivers carry bodies too So I stepped in slow not knowing which one I’d become
There’s ghosts in the water tonight Faces floating just below the moonlight All the old sins I can’t outrun All the things I wish I’d never done
But the deeper that river pulled on me The lighter these chains began to be And for the first time in my life I didn’t feel alone in the night
Knee deep there beneath the stars I looked up through my busted heart And whispered words I didn’t know I still remembered from long ago
About dead things rising back to life And lost sons making their way home About shepherds leaving 99 Just to carry one broken soul
Water rolled hard against my chest Like heaven itself saying let go And Lord I want it to More than anything
There’s ghosts in the water tonight Old temptations and shattered lives Every lie the devil ever used Still lingers when the river moves
But somewhere beneath that cold dark flow I felt pieces of myself let go Like the man I was finally died Beneath that pale blue midnight sky
Maybe being born again ain’t far Crashing down from skies Maybe you’re standing waist deep in regret Begging God to teach you how to love
Maybe redemption feels like drowning first Before you finally breathe
There’s ghosts in the water tonight But they don’t hold me near as tight Cause grace moved quiet through that stream Like mercy moving over me
And though I walk back soaked in cold With scars I’ll probably always hold I left something buried in that tide And I don’t think it’s coming back this time
River rolled on through the dark somewhere Pines swayed slow in the midnight air And from the banks beneath those stars I finally believe change might be possible
